You dare to cultivate without money?!-Chapter 343 - 292: Helping Mu Lan, Going to the Construction Site

Chapter 343: Chapter 292: Helping Mu Lan, Going to the Construction Site

Because after class every day, most of Zhang Yu’s time is spent practicing the cultivation technique required for the Civil Engineering Sacred Body, he rarely focuses on professional cultivation techniques taught in class.

After all, Yu Shu’s technique-switching has a one-day cooldown, so to ensure rapid progress in the Civil Engineering Sacred Body cultivation technique, Zhang Yu has never switched Yu Shu to foundational techniques like Concrete Gang Qi taught in civil engineering courses.

Without time and without the blessing of Yu Shu, relying only on the scattered practice from the past three months in class, he has managed to grasp the basics of several cultivation techniques taught in class, reaching Level 1 proficiency.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from afar. A stream of concrete, resembling a myriad of gray dragons, was being infused into the target spots under Gongshu Jin’s control, causing an uproar among the students nearby.

"Multi-line manipulation, and the distance exceeds 30 meters. Has he cultivated Concrete Gang Qi to Level 10?"

"The Four-layered Lord cultivates techniques quickly, doesn’t he?"

"Nonsense, with so much wealth, how could his cultivation be slow?"

Listening to the surrounding praises, Gongshu Jin paid no attention. For him, with private teachers offering one-on-one guidance, the auxiliary mimicry mode of the spinal Magic Remains, and constant technique corrections from Spirit Realm projections, learning these things was simply too easy.

He glanced at Zhang Yu, who was just starting to learn the basics, and smiled helplessly, thinking to himself, "He shouldn’t lack money, right? His martial arts aptitude is really... My friend here will probably have a tough few years ahead."

After the engineering Array drawing class ended that day, Tu Lishan contacted Zhang Yu and said, "Come to the construction site after school tomorrow."

"I’ll send you the address."

"666th floor?" Seeing the address sent over, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Finally, I can make some money at the construction site?"

...

In the dormitory.

After absorbing high-quality mana, Zhang Yu felt the high-quality mana in his body dissipate completely and opened his eyes with a look of lingering desire.

Suddenly, he noticed Le Mulan meditating nearby and thought to himself, "I wonder if my current mana quality can help Le Mulan improve."

"If possible... I might be able to get her Dao Seed, the so-called Cold Law Vein, sooner. This Dao Seed should help enhance the quality of mana, right? It would save me a lot of money."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu approached Le Mulan and said, "Le Mulan, let me try to see if I can help you improve your mana quality."

Le Mulan was slightly surprised and asked, "How do we do that?"

Zhang Yu replied, "I’ll inject mana into your body, and you try to collide and communicate with it..."

Listening to Zhang Yu’s words, Le Mulan couldn’t shake off her thoughts about the dual cultivation recommended by Xuan Ge in recent days.

Le Mulan thought, "Dual cultivation... It seems to start with the communication of mana between two people."

"According to Xuan Ge, my type of innate special mana is highly effective on the path of dual cultivation."

"Could it be... Zhang Yu wants to dual cultivate with me?"

Thinking of this, Le Mulan felt a jolt, "If true... Then as long as the product of each cultivation stays with me, it’s not entirely out of the question."

"I just don’t know how much I should pay Zhang Yu."

Le Mulan remembered Xuan Ge saying that in a dual cultivation between the weak and the strong, the weak usually has to pay the strong.

"If Zhang Yu’s fee for a session is higher than the selling price of Yu Juice, then I’d lose money with each session."

Zhang Yu looked puzzled at Le Mulan with a complex expression and asked, "Is there a problem? If you think it’s inconvenient, we can forget about it."

Le Mulan took a deep breath and asked, "I... How much do I need to pay you?"

Zhang Yu smiled slightly and said, "No charge, we’re from the same hometown and living in the same dormitory now, we should help each other."

Le Mulan’s eyes flickered slightly and she hesitated, saying, "Then... then..."

Thinking about what she was about to say, Le Mulan felt extremely embarrassed.

Having never taken advantage of others like this before, her face turned slightly red.

Finally, Le Mulan gathered her courage and said, "The part that stays in my body... can it be mine?"

Zhang Yu laughed heartily and said, "Isn’t that obvious? It’s in your body, so it’s yours."

Le Mulan was taken aback and originally thought Zhang Yu would haggle, not expecting him to be so generous.

Thinking about her recent behavior, Le Mulan thought, "Seems like I showed a weakness, and he noticed."

"But Zhang Yu forgave everything, giving it to me so freely. He truly considers me a good friend."

With these thoughts, Le Mulan decided that she should pay Zhang Yu. If not, taking advantage without paying wouldn’t be right for a friend.

Zhang Yu grasped Le Mulan’s wrist, and a stream of mana flowed over like a gentle creek.

After a while, Zhang Yu frowned slightly, "The effect is a bit lacking."

"Sigh, ultimately because you haven’t reached Foundation Establishment, mana quality is hard to improve."

Seeing Zhang Yu’s inactivity, Le Mulan couldn’t help but ask, "Finished?"

Zhang Yu shrugged, "What else? We’ll have to wait until you reach Foundation Establishment."

Hearing this, the enthusiasm in Le Mulan dissipated as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her, leaving her feeling chilled.

Le Mulan said dejectedly, "Foundation Establishment is required?"

Zhang Yu nodded, "So when is the Foundation Establishment exam?"

Zhang Yu knew that after entering university, there’s a Foundation Establishment exam every year.

The high school Foundation Establishment exam, to give high school students more time to grow, is spread out over several months.

While university students who take the Foundation Establishment exam have already reached the peak of Qi Refinement, the exam is completed within a few days. For universities like Wanfa University, one of the top ten, there are more slots for the Foundation Establishment qualification certificate.

Le Mulan sighed, "This November, about two and a half months left."

She patted her dantian and said, "I’ve already bought my Spirit Root. Once I get the Foundation Establishment qualification certificate from university, I can immediately proceed."

Although Le Mulan is a top student of Purple Cloud, consistently ranking in the top five of Songyang City, and even able to maintain the standard of the top three excluding Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, and Yu Xinghan, various metrics have long reached the peak of Qi Refinement.

But after all, he has to compete with countless top students from the top ten... Looking at the Dao Seed on the other’s body, Zhang Yu said: "Do your best. If you need help, just say it directly."

Le Mulan looked at Zhang Yu, mustered up courage, and said: "I want..."

Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, saying: "What do you want?"

Hearing the other party repeat the word, Zhang Yu thought, damn it, you’re at it again?

Le Mulan said: "I can pay. I don’t want to wait until Foundation Establishment..."

Fu Ji said: "They’re offering money, why are you being pretentious? Aren’t you in need of money right now? Not earning money, can you call yourself a college student?"

"Although I don’t understand why you want to help Le Mulan enhance Mana quality, you can earn more money and enhance more Mana quality, and after she establishes her Foundation, you can benefit her in return."

Zhang Yu frowned, always feeling something was off about this.

That night, when Zhang Yu shared his doubts with Bai Zhenzhen, Bai Zhenzhen laughed aloud: "What’s there to hesitate about? Hurry up and sell."

"You won’t earn money even when it’s available, are you stupid?"

Zhang Yu sighed, thinking to himself: "Maybe I’m indeed being too pretentious."

"When Kunxu people encounter such things, shouldn’t they just sell like crazy?"

...

After disconnecting the communication, Bai Zhenzhen pursed her lips, seemingly lost in some kind of thought.

A woman’s voice sounded in her ear: "Good disciple, you’re disturbed."

Bai Zhenzhen murmured: "Why... why do I feel a bit uncomfortable?"

Thinking that while she was away, Zhang Yu seemed to have become closer with others, Bai Zhenzhen felt a slight discomfort in her heart.

Extreme Emotion Divine Monarch said indifferently: "Not happy?"

Bai Zhenzhen questioned: "Is that it? Am I the type of jealous friend?"

"I don’t want Zhang Yu to have other friends closer to him than me?"

"Am I that petty?"

Extreme Emotion Divine Monarch said: "A person’s thoughts are shaped by emotions, and the complexity of emotions often makes it difficult for one to discern their true feelings."

"In the Extreme Emotion Sword Dao, this is even more taboo."

"If you’re unsure, you should think carefully and clarify your thoughts."

"For example, consider their way of transaction, if it’s dual cultivation, what would be your feeling?"

With a crackling explosion, electric lights shimmered across Bai Zhenzhen’s body, and she said calmly: "That depends on how much money Zhang Yu took."

Extreme Emotion Divine Monarch smiled: "In Extreme Emotion Sword Dao, only by being extreme in emotion can one be extreme in sword. But to be extreme in emotion, one must first understand one’s heart and feelings..."

...

Early in the morning, Xuan Ge arrived at the 125th floor dormitory, preparing to go to class with Le Mulan.

Wanting to become part of the other’s family of four, Xuan Ge seized every opportunity to actively make friends with Le Mulan during this period.

Seeing Le Mulan open the door and step outside, Xuan Ge was about to greet him when he suddenly noticed a small change in expression.

He saw a measuring cup flash and was quickly hidden in the other’s embrace.

At this moment, Xuan Ge suddenly felt a tremor in his hand, a sense of pain rising in his heart.

"Damn it... why not me?"

"We’re all in Qi Refinement, why is it Le Mulan and not me?"

...

After school that day.

In the Magnetic Channel.

Zhang Yu glanced at the extra 0.05 spirit coins in his account, which he earned as a side job from Le Mulan while Yu Xinghan and his sister were both away yesterday.

"Just don’t know when the next time will be?"

"This fear that even Level 2 companies won’t research anything of value and then treat it as trash again."

Yu Xinghan said: "Hurry up, it’s the first time at the construction site, don’t be late."

Their figures shot forward like electricity, moving through layers of the university city, seeing the bustling market, the dusty Civil Engineering Department classroom, the splendid Finance Department building, and the talisman-filled temple of the Talisman Department...

Upon reaching the 666th layer, they unexpectedly found it to be a large construction site, with the long unseen night sky overhead.

Gazing at the moon and stars in the sky, Yu Xinghan and Zhang Yu fell into a slight daze.

Having squeezed within the beehive-like university city and lived in a 5-square-meter dormitory for the past three months, the two had accumulated a bit of pent-up frustration.

At this moment, seeing the vast sky again, their spirits seemed to expand, and a sense of ease surged through their minds.

Just then, a voice reached them: "What are you doing here?"

Zhang Yu and Yu Xinghan turned around to find Li Xiao looking at Yu Xinghan, saying: "Did you also pay?"

Yu Xinghan nodded, he indeed paid a 0.01 spirit coin introduction fee.

Li Xiao thought: "Seems I’m not the only one turning in one-fifth of my monthly salary."
